Thus, she couldn’t waste time.
The Valiant Voyager, Jarrod’s private yacht, docked at the seaside harbor. It was a three-hour drive from the city center.
It was already afternoon when Nicole arrived there.
She didn’t have anything this morning because she had to fast for her laboratory tests. Later, when she rushed to the company, she was swamped with those issues with the deals. For a whole long day, she didn’t have time to eat anything. Until now, her stomach was empty.
It felt like her stomach was burning, not from hunger but from some sort of internal heat.
A miserable smile slowly crept across Nicole’s face. She often felt this way since the beginning of the year. Now that she was diagnosed with stomach cancer, she knew it was a sign of her stomach suffering and warned her to pay attention to her health.
But unfortunately, she hadn’t paid much attention to her condition since Jarrod’s return. After all, handling him had taken her most of the time and effort.
If she hadn’t missed the best time for treatment, her condition wouldn’t have worsened like this.

Now, it was too late for anything.
When Nicole stepped out of the car, the cold late December wind blew on her face. She felt like it was a blade that cut her skin. She wrapped her coat tightly around her body and walked toward the dock which Led to the prominent ultra-Luxury yacht.
Two bodyguards in black stood there, checking the guests’ invitations before they could get on board.
Nicole called Jarrod, and he answered quickly.
She hurriedly said, “Jarrod, I’m outside the Valiant Voyager. Can you come down to see me? Or can I go up?”
“I told you I’m busy today, and I don’t want to see you. Get out of here!” Jarrod replied impatiently.
“Jarrod, please. It will only take five minutes,” Nicole pleaded. She didn’t intend to give up.
“Not even five seconds. All my time today is only for Jamie,” Jarrod refused coldly.

“So, get lost! Don’t let me see your disgusting face!”
Nicole then heard the beeping sound.
Jarrod hung up without even giving her a chance to explain.
Nicole dialed Jarrod’s number again. But this time, all she got was a busy tone. It seemed he had blocked her.
She stood in the cold wind for almost two hours, wrapping her coat tightly around her body. Her assistant called again, informing her that one of their partners, who wasn’t dissatisfied with their products, had called and asked about their products being returned.
This was not a good sign. It seemed this partner was thinking about terminating their cooperation.
Nicole clenched her fists tightly. She walked forward, pulled out some cash from her wallet, and stuffed the money into the bodyguards’ hands, attempting to bribe them to let her in.
